Remember the days when 3-in-1 meant a cassette player, radio
and cassette recorder all rolled in one? The younger generation would not even
know about them because soon CDs replaced the cassettes and we had the cassette
players combined with CD players in coming years.

Fatherhood is not a relationship that comes naturally as
motherhood. I know you are already disagreeing with me and getting ready to
argue. I feel that way because in most of the animal kingdom, including our own
so called ancestors – I do not see any special bond between the father and
child. It is the mother who nurtures the baby and makes them to be independent.

Smartphones with smarter apps are making me smarter with
each passing day, or am I wrong? I order my food, book my taxi, listen to
music, edit photos or create work related images through my mobile apps. Most
of the time I do not have my laptop handy, but smart phones are easier to carry
around. Most of the websites give you great offers if you book tickets, order
food or buy products through their apps. I get invite to 100s of Mobile/tablet apps
every month. Though initially I am tempted by the offer of the apps, later on I
realize how easy it is to use them.

For me, it is difficult to let go of old gadgets and opt for a new one,especially when it comes to phones.

I love new gadgets, but letting go of the old ones is tough. At present I don’t think I have any right to criticize any mobile
phone, considering I am happily using my HTC wildfire which is about to go into
coma anytime. Most of the functions of my old phone have stopped working, but
it allows me to make my calls. Hence I am holding on to it.

I have always taken pride in being on time everywhere so
far. Lately, it has almost become impossible for me to anywhere on time (give
and take 10 minutes). Bangalore traffic has become so unpredictable that either
I am quite early or late. It was no different Friday evening. I am not sure,
but the roads seemed to be crazily packed as though there was an exodus moving
on the streets of Bangalore. My plan of attending an important meeting before
registering to meet had to be dropped down half way, yet we couldn’t get to the
event before 6.15 p.m.
